I’m dual booting windows and linux and I’m only using Windows for applications I can’t get to run on Linux. If I’m installing Vanguard on Windows, could that be a safety concern for my Linux partition? Since I have no personal data on Windows, I wouldn’t mind installing it there, as long as it’s not an issue for my linux partition
Stop stealing our CPU cycles for high risk rootkits and start mitigating and detecting cheating on the server.
It’s that easy.
I stopped playing games that want this bullshit. Don’t need that shit in my life.
tldr for anyone:
They aren’t fixing it. fuck y’all.
Also - it’s not a rootkit - it just loads at boot and has higher privileges than the userspace that you can’t contr… oh. it’s a rootkit. They don’t want you to call it that though. It’s not cancer… it’s a growth.
My main issue with this blog post is that rather than properly addressing concerns, they make fun of them.
It’s not a rootkit, journalists just spread misinformation for clicks
Why is it not a rootkit, then??
Because journalists.
Good riddance, spent several years hooked to League. That being said, the fragmentation argument is bullshit, they could ship a read-only container in a flatpak and it’d run everywhere.
Kernel level is a huge risk and it doesn’t guarantee anything, especially in the age of Ai cheats and network mitm cheats
You can’t do shit with flatpak as a kernel level anti cheat.
That’s the point. A read only container to keep low hanging fruit at bay, and flatpak to distribute without having to repackage to every distro under the sun.
I don’t fuck with the game, the game doesn’t fuck with my system.
That doesn’t protect the game in any way, that’s the issue. If you don’t fuck with it, it doesn’t mean that everyone else doesn’t as well.
Their anti cheat rootkit doesn’t protect the game either.
How do you know?
